Tips & Advice
- Don't count on catching candy, because nothing may be thrown or handed out from floats or by walkers along the parade route.
- Runners can join the inaugural TLC Jingle Jog 5K, which starts 30 minutes before the parade and finishes at the Lake Lillian pavilion.
- Wear red, white and blue to match this year's theme, A Red, White, and Blue Christmas, honoring America's 250th birthday.
- Groups entering the parade must attend one mandatory packet pickup meeting or send a representative, or they can't march and get no refund.
- Float entries should arrive early on parade day, because floats must be decorated and in position well before step-off, and late arrivals are removed.
